Las Vegas Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers is rewriting the record books, becoming one of the most productive tight ends in NFL history. Drafted 13th overall in 2023, Bowers has amassed over 1,000 receiving yards, making him only the third tight end to achieve this milestone in their rookie season. He also holds the record for most receptions by a rookie tight end in Raiders history and ranks second for most receiving yards by a rookie tight end in the NFL since 1961.
Las Vegas was between a rock and a hard place when drafted 13th overall in last year's NFL Draft. The Raiders desperately needed a quarterback but were out of position to get any of the top quarterbacks available, as a rookie number of quarterbacks were taken within the first 12 picks of the draft.
Through the first 15 games of the season, Bowers has proven to be arguably the best tight end in the league, even as a rookie. He has continued to be a bright spot for a Raiders team void of many positives this season.
